Eight intrepid and keen Tasar teams turned up at Georges River on a sad looking day on Sunday. As we had no starter for the day Ratz drew the shortest of all the short straws and got to be the starter for the day.

The course was set in a light northerly breeze and once the countdown sequence started the breeze immediately shifted to the Northwest.

A 15-20 knot nor'easter in September....now that’s a good start to the season....aching bodies today ....plenty of Voltarin will be consumed .

But it wasn’t too tricky for `Another Roady’ skippered& crewed by Peter& Pia.
